Abstract

In the context of applying medical treatment to humans it is sometimes necessary to straighten a curled or hooked finger before it can be operated on. The process is typically done in stages using plaster casts, each cast training the finger to a more straightened disposition. A preferred embodiment of the invention provides for a useful alternative by way of a splint 1. It has a first cradle 2 proportioned for receiving part of a finger 4, a second cradle 3 with a contact surface 12 proportioned for receiving another part of the finger, straps 6, 7 for securing the cradles to the finger and a threaded adjustment screw 9. The screw 9 freely butts against the contact surface 12 and can be turned to angle adjust the first and second cradles by pushing against the contact surface 12 so that the angle of the finger changes correspondingly.
